It's a tire. Just drive on it.

I'm usually a smartass, but in this instance, I say buy a nice tire cover. You won't see the white stripe anymore and you'll save your spare from UV damage.

A smartass would say, first world problems.

More like 0th world problem.

Got new tires on yesterday all around and the spare has this awful white paint on it. It's even down inside the tread! It didn't come off when I washed Jeep today.

There’s nothing wrong with the way it is. Just let him be who he wants to be.

I agree. But @robynE is TIREd of it. It’s not REVOLUTIONary and WEIGHs heavy on the mind.

I've been going round and round in circles over what to do about it.

It must be gut WRENCHing. Ah, NUTS.

90% rubbing alcohol and a scrub brush. That will also take the white numbers off that are printed on the sidewall.

New tires have stuff on them fairly often. They clean up nicely once you drive on them.

Why does it bother you so much?

Black paint.

or a SHARPIE MAGNUM

I use that on my tire sidewalls (for a different sport) to hide the brand names since they don't officially sponser me. Works great.

Hard to drive on the spare when it is mounted on the back!

Its instinctual..

Because it's on the spare tire and it's extremely obvious. Big white letters all the way around the whole tire.

I might have to do that down in the tread if I can't get to it good enough with a brush.
